PRIOR TO FIRST FIRE

:  Remove all labels from glass.  Clean plated surfaces with a glass cleanser and soft cloth 

to prevent staining from fingerprint oils.

This  manual  contains  instructions  for  Installation, Operation  &  Maintenance.   Please  read  this  entire 

manual  before  you  install  and  use  your  new  room  heater.   Failure  to  follow  instructions  may  result  in 

property damage, bodily injury, or even death.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES:

1)  When installing your insert, particular attention should be paid to fire protection. If this room heater is not properly 

installed, a house fire may result. To reduce the risk of fire, follow the installation instructions. Contact local building, fire 
officials or authority having jurisdiction about restrictions,installation inspection and permits requirements in your area.

2)  CAUTION: Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or 

“freshen up” a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.

3)  During operation, if any part of the insert starts to glow, the insert is in an overfired condition. Close the air controls 

completely by pulling them out, until the glowing has stopped.

  OVERFIRING VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY!

4)  Cool ashes should be disposed of carefully, using a metal container.
5)  Do not burn wet or green wood. Store wood in a dry location.
6)  DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL.  Do not 

burn treated wood, or wood with salt (driftwood, etc.). Burning materials other than wood (including charcoal) under 
adverse conditions may generate carbon monoxide in the home, resulting in illness or possible death.

7)  Do not permit creosote or soot to accumulate excessively in the chimney or inside the firebox.
8)  Check your chimney system thoroughly when installing into an existing metal or masonry chimney. Seek professional 

advice if in doubt about its condition.

9)  Do not connect this unit to a chimnney flue already serving another appliance.
10)  Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as shown in this manual for this appliance.
11)  Build fire on brick firebox floor. Do not use grates, andirons or other methods to support fuel.
12)  HOT WHILE IN OPERATION! Keep children, pets, clothing and furniture away. Contact can cause skin burns.
13)  Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system.
14)  RISK OF FIRE! Do not operate with insert door open. Operating with door open could result in overfiring.
15)  For further information refer to NFPA 211 (US) or CAN/CSA-B365 (Canada).
16)  Do not operate without fully assembling all components.
17)  Do not operate with broken glass.
